To fly, there are flights from CDG (Paris Charles de Gaulle) to BIQ (Biarritz). Lots of flights come into BIQ.

From there, it is the airport bus to Bayone rail station and then the train to SJPP. Very simple

Train from Paris Montparnasse - Bayonne - SJPDP
worked like a charm
Ditto, Anhalter. Bayonne is a charming and welcoming city. After the flight to Paris (from Seattle) then the train from Montparnasse, I spent two nights there while shaking off jet lag before heading to SJPdP. Bayonne's river, the Nive, is the same river that flows through SJPdP.

Hi @Evita! Looking at flight connections from Keflavik to Biarritz for early October, I see that they propose flights where you change planes in Paris either at Charles de Gaulle or at Orly. KEF-CDG/ORY-BIQ can be faster than KEF-CDG/CDG-BIQ.

The transfer from CDG to Orly is very doable, the best option is taking the shuttle bus. There is info about this on the forum in earlier threads.
 
The best way is walking, though I suppose that's not your question.

As Anhalter said, "Train from Paris Montparnasse - Bayonne - SJPDP".

If you want to get to SJPdP the quickest, fly to Biarritz and then arrange transport with Express Bourricot.
I took that approach and it worked like a charm. Best part was when Carolyn (spelling?) from Express Bourricot found me in a crowd of people at the airport and said (not asked), "You are one of my pilgrims!" I was impressed, especially since I had my backpack in a larger duffle bag. I take that back: The best part was listening to her share her knowledge of the Basque Country on the ride to SJPdP.
